  1. Electrical substation

    nekomaster commented on KOSMO*'s file in Utilities

    Nice idea, bigger then some other substations I've seen which would make it better for power stations or large transfer grids, though at 6000 MwH of output, I think its a bit overpowered, perhaps something like 600-800 MwH would be a little less cheaty

  2. Transformer Substation

    nekomaster commented on TakemeThere's file in Utilities

    How do I get MandelSoft's awesome power lines? Are the plop-able only or can I connect them with power lines?
  3. BTW Can't I use PIMX to CAMify things? I don't mind having regular stuff in my game because from my experience, sometimes big stuff pops up in small cities like my own town, we already have a couple of pretty big buildings and apartments despite only having 150,000 people Also I wish I knew how to BAT, I've tried multiple times to do anything 3D but I can never make heads or tails of anything, meaning I still havent been able to make any custom buildings for SimCity 4, Cities Skylines, or Cities XL... it'd be nice if things where as easy as SimCity 3000 and its BAT tool.
  4. Update, got PIMX and already figured out how to use some of its features, like setting the style/tileset.
  5. Well after reading peoples comments I can see it will be a bit of a tedious process but can be done one way or another. I may just go with the route that Bombardiere suggested and make sure all my mods are set to appear on the euro tile set, this way I can play the game with the European stuff activated and flesh things out a little more and provide some competition to repetitive lots. I thought I had things going well a couple days ago but I had a feeling things werent going right when some ot Mattb325's small low wealth houses kept popping up and no other types of housing where appearing except for high wealth and Medium and high density stuff. Once I removed the small low wealth and medium wealth houses I got from the LEX, nothing except for Ill Tonkso's Portchester Gardens appeared for residential. I'm currently redoing my British mod pack bit by bit, so Bombardiere's solution may work better for me as I go along here. It will be a long and hard road and I may get bored of playing SimCity 4 after doing so much set up and play testing, but at least in the end I'll have a British modpack to play with for the future, and I just got a 2TB hard disk from my uncle that I will be storing all the less important stuff that I don't want clogging up my Main 2TB Seagate Constellation. I hope to have a bunch of SimCity 4 regional/country mod packs to play with in the future, which once I can confirm that things are working properly, I will be dat packing my modpacks to make things easier for future me (especially if I get drunk)

  6. United Kingdom

    I just started building a UK Mod pack and this is exactly what I was looking for! A huge map of the UK! Thanks bro!

  7. Paeng's Parking Lots Vol 01

    nekomaster commented on paeng's file in Transportation

    Really like these and I wish there was more parking lots or parking garages like these. Is there an easy way to add a monthly income to other lots like the Maxis parking garage? Where I'm from most public parking spaces and garages charge a fee, usually 2 dollars (Canadian) an hour or perhaps 10 dollars for the whole day (handy for people that want to park and ride or work in an office area)
  8. Well if anything, I know that Residential and COmmercial buildings in SimCity 4 use names that sorta identify what tile set they belong to, like Houston, NYC, and Chicago. Is there an easy way to go through the American buildings and disable their growth so that I can keep the American tile sets active without the Maxis American buildings appearing? Only tools I'm sorta familiar with are the Lot Editor and iLives Reader, if theres a better program for individually going through each american building and disabling them, I'd like to know. So far I have found a decent amount of "British" styled stuff that I feel looks british enough, though some things can work in most set ups (I'm finding a lot of Post 1970's towers and skyscrapers tend to look the same throughout the world, except for really compact stuff like pencil towers that you may find in Asia) Also I'm having a little problem where even though I have a bunch of residential house and row house lots some lots repeat through out the city taking up 80-90% of the housing styles. This is part of the reason why I'd like to keep the European tile set buildings around so as to add a little extra styling and competition to repetitive lots (considering maxis buildings tend to pop up a lot as well)

  10. Because I was born and raised in Ontario, Canada, I mostly set up SimCity 4 with American and Canadian styled buildings, mostly stuff that fits into the majority of Canada, The North East, North West, Mid West and Central parts of USA. Though lately I've been thinking about building cities in a different style like United Kingdom or Asia. I did get the no maxis files mod to block all levels of Residential and Commercial, though I wonder is there a way to just block American buildings in general and leave the European set alone? Other then that I know where to get british themed lots and what not so that wont be an issue for me, I just want to block the American stuff for my British SimCity 4 setup. EDIT : I KNOW THAT YOU CAN DISABLE THE AMERICAN TILE SETS, but not all of the mods/lots I download may fall into the European category and thus may not spawn if I just disable the American tile sets alone. I'm downloading stuff right now that mostly looks british in my opinion but may not actually be strictly European/British and may not be enabled in the European tile set. I just want to disable the American buildings and leave the European stuff in, that way I can enable all the Tile Sets and let the European set grow and let mod lots/buildings grow incase they don't end up under the European tile set.

  12. ITS UK Suburban High Wealth Residential Pack 2

    nekomaster commented on ILL Tonkso's file in Residential

    I like it You'd be surprised how many houses in Oshawa, Ontario have styling like this (but they're older, like pre 1950's)

  13. Los Angeles, CA.

    nekomaster commented on alexismh's file in Maps

    How do I make this larger? I have a good enough computer to load a very large region and I'd like to play Los Angeles on a more realistic scale.
  14. Hey guys, I have a little problem with the SimCity 4 Launcher that gets pretty annoying for me. I have version 1.5.4b - R12 (Sept 10) version of the SimCity 4 Launcher and when I open the launcher I can't close it once I start up the game, the program remains in my taskbar and shows the aero peek thumbnail but the actual window wont open. Also I can't seem to end/kill the process manually in Task Manager or from Commandline using Taskkill /pid #### /f as windows just tells me "Access Denied" This issue happens on Windows 7 x64 and Windows 10 x64 (Though I currently use the latter). This is on a computer I own and have full administrator rights over. The only way I could go even more admin is by enabling access to the hidden administrator account in Windows. Its not a major issue but if I open and close SimCity 4 a few times, then I'll end up with multiple un-killable tasks that take up 12-13 MB each.

  15. Transit Enabled Alley Way's

    nekomaster posted a topic in SC4 - Custom Content

    One thing I like to do in my cities is add space around buildings for ally ways, which I usually use Ped Mall Tiles or Open Paved Area While I have made a simple lot in the Lot Editor with a simple pavement texture, I'd like to make it transit enabled to allow pedestrians and maybe cars to drive through. I do have iLives Reader installed as well, though I wouldn't know where to start to make a transit enabled lot. Oh, and like the pedestrian mall tiles from NAM, I'd prefer if the Alley Way I'm making could just be plopped without needing a road connection (unless I need that to allow cars to drive through as well) Any help would be appreciated, and if anyone has a sample I can build off of that would also help me

  16. Upscale Elementary School

    nekomaster commented on JasonB52's file in Civic & Non-RCI

    Nice, reminds me of the schools I've been to in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, all the schools except for one had a Baseball Diamond or two and a large field (usually with a dual purpose Soccer/Football goal on each end, even though schools around here aren't allowed to do football because of the risk of injury... )
